Professional Experience

Post Doctoral Researcher

Software engineer

The Interface Group, University of Zurich (UZH)

06/17 - 06/19

Two main projects:

  • develop user-friendly interfaces of Calcium and Phosphate Homeosta- sis, using the R-Shiny package, javascript and C. Management of linux web servers. Design new interactive tools dedicated to teaching courses.
  • build a model linking the cardiac and renal functions,to better understand the interplay between chronic kidney disease as well as cardiac failure. Create virtual patient populations using Monte Carlo simulations.
